Panko

Build Status

Panko is a library which is inspired by ActiveModelSerializers 0.9 for serializing ActiveRecord/Ruby objects to JSON strings, fast.

To achieve its performance:

  • Oj - Panko relies on Oj since it's fast and allows for incremental serialization using Oj::StringWriter
  • Serialization Descriptor - Panko computes most of the metadata ahead of time, to save time later in serialization.
  • Type casting — Panko does type casting by itself, instead of relying on ActiveRecord.
